worst case you might have to cut down one of the other pipes for extra muffler length. My truck came with a crazy long muffler, it must be like 30" long lol.

Does it sound good with that big of a muffler? And you notice any loss of power at all?

Well, just got the cat replaced for now, $230 dollars later. Universal cat and a half hours worth of work..

But I'm getting a kit for the rest and putting it on myself, just gonna have the joint welded after I'm done. They quoted me like, 30 bucks to do it.

Yeah I know you don't have to weld em.. but for the 30 bucks to get it welded, I'd rather just do it.

I bought the truck like that so im unsure about powerloss but its quiet and I love it. I have a mustang for being loud around town, so I love the quiet blaze. Previous owner also installed a K&N CAI so overall Im really happy with how my blazer sounds accelerating.

Fair enough. yeah.. I don't want it to be too loud, but I want a little rumble. I think I'm just gonna go with the super turbo cat back and call it a day.
